As our population grows, so does the noise pollution in our society. The problem with noise pollution is generally bigger in cities with higher populations. This can have negative effects on our health. One of our more sensitive environments when noise is involved can we find in our schools. The purpose of the study was to investigate if there was a difference in noisepollution between schoolyards in bigger and smaller municipalities and to investigate the educators' experience of noise pollution in schoolyards. In this study, noise pollution onschoolyards was investigated through a survey study that was sent out to educators in random municipalities in Sweden. The result in the study showed that there is a moderate problemwith noise levels at schools, however, these noises are not related to the schoolyard. The result also showed that there were no significant differences in experience of noise pollution on schoolyards or noise related health problems for educators working in small and large municipalities.
